Chris Pfeifer, (703) 308–0031, pfeifer.chris@epa.gov 

The registration review docket for a 

pesticide includes earlier documents 

related to the registration review of the 

case. For example, the review opened 

with the posting of a Summary 

Document, containing a Preliminary 

Work Plan, for public comment. A Final 

Work Plan was posted to the docket 

following public comment on the initial 

docket. 

The documents in the dockets 

describe EPA’s rationales for conducting 

additional risk assessments for the 

registration review of the pesticides 

included in the table in Unit II.A., as 

well as the Agency’s subsequent risk 

findings. These proposed registration 

review decisions are supported by the 

rationales included in those 

documents.. 

Following public comment, the 

Agency will issue final registration 

review decisions for products 

containing the pesticides listed in the 

table in Unit II.A. 

The registration review program is 

being conducted under Congressionally 

mandated time frames, and EPA 

recognizes the need both to make timely 

decisions and to involve the public. 

Section 3(g) of the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act 

(FIFRA), as amended, required EPA to 

establish, by regulation, procedures for 

reviewing pesticide registrations, 

originally with a goal of reviewing each 

pesticide’s registration every 15 years to 

ensure that a pesticide continues to 

meet the FIFRA standard for 

registration. The Agency’s final rule to 

implement this program was issued in 

August 2006 and became effective in 

October 2006, and appears at 40 CFR 

part 155, subpart C. The Pesticide 

Registration Improvement Act of 2003 

(PRIA) was amended and extended in 

September 2007. FIFRA, as amended by 

PRIA in 2007, requires EPA to complete 

registration review decisions by October 

1, 2022, for all pesticides registered as 

of October 1, 2007. 

The registration review final rule at 40 

CFR 155.58(a) provides for a minimum 

60–day public comment period on all 

proposed registration review decisions. 

This comment period is intended to 

provide an opportunity for public input 

and a mechanism for initiating any 

necessary amendments to the proposed 

decision. All comments should be 

submitted using the methods in 

ADDRESSES, and must be received by 

EPA on or before the closing date. These 

comments will become part of the 

docket for the pesticides included in the 

table in Unit II.A. Comments received 

after the close of the comment period 

will be marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not 

required to consider these late 

comments. 

The Agency will carefully consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and will provide a ‘‘Response to 

Comments Memorandum’’ in the docket. 

The final registration review decision 

will explain the effects that any 

comments had on the decision and 

provide the Agency’s response to 

significant comments.

program is provided at: http://

review of these pesticides are provided

B. What is the Agency’s Authority for 

Taking this Action? 

Section 3(g) of FIFRA and 40 CFR part 

155, subpart C, provide authority for 

this action.

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 83 / Friday, April 30, 2010 / Notices 22791 

Council, CASAC, and SAB conduct 

business in accordance with the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5 

U.S.C. App. 2) and related regulations. 

Generally, Council, CASAC and SAB 

meetings are announced in the Federal 

Register, conducted in public view, and 

provide opportunities for public input 

during deliberations. Additional 

information about these Federal 

Advisory Committees may be found at 

http://www.epa.gov/advisorycouncilcaa, 

http://www.epa.gov/casac and http:// 

www.epa.gov/sab, respectively. 

Members of the Council, CASAC, and 

the SAB, constitute a distinguished 

body of non-EPA scientists, engineers, 

economists, and social scientists that are 

nationally and internationally 

recognized experts in their respective 

fields. Members are appointed by the 

EPA Administrator for a period of three 

years, with the possibility of reappointment to a second three-year 

term. This notice specifically requests 

nominations for the chartered Council, 

the chartered CASAC, and the chartered 

SAB. 

Expertise Sought: The Council was 

established in 1990 pursuant to the 

Clean Air Act (CAA) Amendments of 

1990 to provide advice and 

recommendations to the EPA 

Administrator on technical and 

economic aspects of the impacts of the 

Clean Air Act (CAA) on the public 

health, economy, and environment of 

the United States. The SAB Staff office 

is seeking nominations for individuals 

to serve on the Council with 

demonstrated expertise in air pollution 

issues. A nominee’s expertise may 

include the following disciplines: 

Environmental economics; economic 

modeling; air quality modeling; 

atmospheric science and engineering; 

ecology and ecological risk assessment; 

epidemiology; environmental health 

sciences; statistics; and human health 

risk assessment. 

Established in 1977 under the Clean 

Air Act (CAA) Amendments, the 

chartered CASAC reviews and offers 

scientific advice to the EPA 

Administrator on technical aspects of 

national ambient air quality standards 

for criteria pollutants. As required 

under the CAA section 109(d), CASAC 

will be composed of seven members, 

with at least one member of the National 

Academy of Sciences, one physician, 

and one person representing state air 

pollution control agencies. The SAB 

Staff Office is seeking nominations of 

experts to serve on the CASAC with 

demonstrated experience in the 

evaluation of effects of air pollution on 

human health and ecosystems. A 

nominee’s expertise may include the 

following disciplines: Air quality 

modeling and monitoring; public health; 

environmental medicine; environmental 

health sciences; ecological sciences, and 

risk assessment. We also request 

nominations of candidates from state 

pollution control agencies. 

The chartered SAB was established in 

1978 by the Environmental Research, 

Development and Demonstration Act to 

provide independent advice to the 

Administrator on general scientific and 

technical matters underlying the 

Agency’s policies and actions. All the 

work of the SAB is under the direction 

of the chartered Board. The chartered 

Board provides strategic advice to the 

EPA Administrator on a variety of EPA 

science and research programs and 

reviews and approves all SAB 

subcommittee and panel reports. The 

chartered Board consists of about forty 

members. The SAB Staff Office is 

seeking nominations of experts to serve 

on the chartered Board in the following 

disciplines: Behavioral and decision 

sciences; ecological sciences and risk 

assessment; environmental modeling; 

industrial ecology; environmental 

engineering; environmental medicine; 

pediatrics; public health; and human 

health risk assessment. 

How to Submit Nominations: Any 

interested person or organization may 

nominate qualified persons to be 

considered for appointment to these 

chartered advisory committees and SAB 

subcommittees. Individuals may selfnominate. Qualified nominees will 

demonstrate appropriate scientific 

education, training, and experience to 

evaluate basic and applied science 

issues addressed by these advisory 

committees. Successful nominees will 

have distinguished themselves 

professionally and be available to invest 

the time and effort in providing advice 

and recommendations on the 

development and application of science 

at EPA. Nominations should be 

submitted in electronic format 

(preferred) following the instructions for

through the ‘‘Nomination of Experts’’ 

link on the blue navigational bar on the 

SAB Web site at http://www.epa.gov/ 

sab. To be considered, all nominations 

should include the information 

requested. EPA values and welcomes 

diversity. In an effort to obtain 

nominations of diverse candidates, EPA 

encourages nominations of women and 

men of all racial and ethnic groups. 

Nominators are asked to identify the 

specific committee(s) for which 

nominees would like to be considered. 

The nominating form requests contact

Candidates invited to serve will be 

asked to submit the ‘‘Confidential 

Financial Disclosure Form for Special 

Government Employees Serving on 

Federal Advisory Committees at the 

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’’ 

(EPA Form 3110–48). This confidential 

form allows EPA to determine whether 

there is a statutory conflict between that 

person’s public responsibilities as a 

Special Government Employee and 

private interests and activities, or the 

appearance of a lack of impartiality, as 

defined by Federal regulation. The form 

may be viewed and downloaded 

through the ‘‘Ethics Requirements for 

Advisors’’ link on the blue navigational 

bar on the SAB Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/sab. This form should not

The SAB Staff Office seeks candidates 

who possess the necessary domains of 

knowledge, and relevant scientific 

perspectives (which, among other 

factors, can be influenced by work 

history and affiliation) to adequately 

address scientific issues facing the 

Agency. The primary criteria to be used 

in evaluating potential nominees will be 

scientific and/or technical expertise, 

knowledge, and experience. Additional 

criteria that will be used to evaluate 

technically qualified nominees will 

include: The absence of financial 

conflicts of interest; scientific credibility 

and impartiality; availability and 

willingness to serve; and the ability to 

work constructively and effectively on 

committees. The selection of new 

members for each of the chartered 

committees will also include 

consideration of the collective breadth 

and depth of scientific expertise; a 

balance of scientific perspectives; 

continuity of knowledge and 

understanding of EPA missions and 

environmental programs; and diversity

I. General Information 

A. Introduction 

1. The Wireless Telecommunications 

Bureau and the Media Bureau 

(collectively, the Bureaus) announce the 

procedures and minimum opening bid 

amounts for the upcoming closed 

auction of certain broadcast AM, FM, 

and FM Translator construction permits. 

This auction, which is designated as 

Auction 88, is scheduled to commence 

on July 20, 2010. Auction 88 is a closed 

auction; only those entities listed in 

Attachment A of the Auction 88 

Procedures Public Notice will be eligible 

to participate in this auction. On 

February 4, 2010, the Bureaus released 

a public notice seeking comment on 

competitive bidding procedures to be 

used in Auction 88. Interested parties 

submitted six comments and one reply 

comment in response to the Auction 88 

Comment Public Notice, 75 FR 8070, 

Feb. 23, 2010. 

B. Construction Permits in Auction 88 

2. Auction 88 will offer construction 

permits for 13 commercial full-power 

FM stations, one commercial FM 

translator station, and one commercial 

AM station as listed in Attachment A of 

the Auction 88 Procedures Public 

Notice. The Bureaus explained that, due 

to a database error, the channel for the 

Rosendale, New York, FM allotment 

(construction permit MM–FM750– 

273A) was listed in Attachment A to the 

Auction 88 Comment Public Notice as 

Channel 273A, when in fact the correct 

channel (as reflected in Attachment A of 

the Auction 88 Procedures Public 

Notice) is Channel 255A at Rosendale. 

Accordingly, the winning bidder for the 

Rosendale permit will be required to 

amend its application to specify 

operation on Channel 255. In Auction 

88, the construction permit will be 

referred to as MM–FM750–255A. 

Despite commenter suggestions that the 

Commission should postpone 

conducting any auction for a permit for 

the FM Channel 251A allotment at 

Santa Isabel, Puerto Rico, on the basis 

of uncertainties concerning technical 

issues that may pose difficulties in 

implementing broadcast operations on 

this channel, the Bureaus will offer this 

permit in Auction 88. 

3. Attachment A of the Auction 88 

Procedures Public Notice identifies the 

closed groups of mutually exclusive 

applications for each construction 

permit in this auction. Four applicants 

notified the Bureaus that changes to the 

applicant’s name occurred after the 

original construction permit application 

had been filed. Notwithstanding 

notification of such a change through 

paper-filed application amendments, 

the Commission databases were never 

updated to reflect the new applicant 

name. Consequently, these applicants 

were listed under the original applicant 

name in the Auction 88 Comment 

Public Notice. Attachment A of the 

Auction 88 Procedures Public Notice 

reflects the name changes for the 

following four applicants: (i) BBK 

Broadcasting, Inc. to Radio Plus, Inc., 

(ii) Directel Inc. to SCHC Lubbock 

Application, Inc., (iii) Music Express 

Broadcasting, Inc. to Music Express 

Broadcasting Corp., and (iv) Rosen 

Broadcasting, Inc. to CHET–5 

Broadcasting, L.P. 

4. An applicant listed in Attachment 

A of the Auction 88 Procedures Public 

Notice may become qualified to bid only 

if it meets the filing, qualification and 

payment requirements. Each qualified 

bidder will be eligible to bid on only 

those construction permits specified for 

that qualified bidder in Attachment A of 

the Auction 88 Procedures Public 

Notice. All applicants within these 

groups of mutually exclusive 

applications (MX groups) are directly 

mutually exclusive with one another; 

therefore no more than one construction 

permit will be awarded for each MX 

group. 

i. Dismissal of Applications for Failure 

To Submit FRN 

5. The Auction 88 Comment Public 

Notice established a deadline for the 

submission to the Commission of an 

FCC Registration Number (FRN) by each 

applicant, and warned of 

disqualification from participation in 

the auction and dismissal of any 

application where the applicant failed 

to provide its FRN by the deadline on 

March 12, 2010. Attachment B of the
